Sodepac is Europe`s largest producer of humidity absorbers for its brands (Seko and Humidivore) and private brands Sodepac also offers products for protecting merchandise from humidity, marketed under the brand SEKODRY.

In 1965, Jean Vasseur perfected an absorption system to counter humidity in the sugar industry.Although initially intended for protecting merchandise in the field of industry, it is obvious that this technique satisfies a genuine need for provide individuals: the first patented humidity absorber was launched in 1973 by the inventor of the process.

Since then the company has not stopped changing, investing every year in product research and development, and in new production tools.

The plant located in Hallennes-lez-Haubourdin in northern France has been enlarged on a regular basis: a new ultra-modern storage area will be in service in 2011, bringing the total surface area of the plant to 6,000 m2.Sodepac employs 45 people (full-time employees).

Sekodry offers many references based on two solutions for protection, in order to satisfy all of the needs in the market.

Regulated humidity absorption at 40%

The ideal method for protecting merchandise in an area where air can circulate and be renewed such as an ocean container, especially if travel time exceeds 15 days.

For this, we offer Sekodry absorber-regulators that react whenever the relative humidity rises. They maintain a hygrometry level of 40%, providing impeccable protection for merchandise.

Desiccants

This method is ideal for constantly maintaining merchandise dry in hermetically-sealed packaging.

For this, we offer Sekodry Desiccants which absorb right from the first percentage point of relative humidity.

Absorption of liquids on the floor: Instazorb

We offer a range of floor absorbers that are guaranteed free of silica powder. They are extremely light and can absorb up to 465% of their own weight.
